Another vote for S2's. I have been taking it easy on the car since the install. There really has been no difference for me between these and stock cams for DD purposes. Dial out most of the lope, she purrs like a kitten, smooth coming off idle. You just got work at it and she'll treat you right. He's mine at idle, 1k rpm.

We did have to install a cosworth head gasket and coworth studs. With cometic gasket and arp studs the head was lifting at 24psi and putting pressure into water lines. Been majorly mind numbing project with bottom end bearing running on first dyno and bearing material going through brand new

Setup is mint now and stroking to 2.3 and sticking with 264s but bigger turbo. we went through 3 cometic gaskets and where using arps. not looking back. Every setup is different and you have to go with what works on your car.

I thought about going s3s but I'm on a 2.0 and ef4 so I don't want to make it drag only feel...coming from an old green its already a totally differnt feel with the later power band. I really don't plan to go t3 tho, If I were I would just do s3s and be done with it

I street s3s and have zero regrets. They idle fine, have great top end power and I like the lope. Might as well do it once and be done.
Since everyone else is doing it..
Little bit exaggerated compared to a cat back set up.
